I was walking down the street today and I encountered group of guys chatting and arguing,as I got close enough,i overheard their topic of argument.
Some of the were arguing that in the bible,there exists a quotation which state that "Riches will be collected from those that doesn't have and given to those that has already" I strained my ears to hear if the verse of the bible will be mentioned but none was mentioned even as those who were arguing against the existence of such quotation was asking them to name the verse they didn't.
Please I want to know if such verse really exists,the verse and what it means cos for me,i understood it to mean taking from the poor to give to the rich and i don't think the bible will actually say that.

Isaiah 45:3 (KJV) And I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that thou mayest know that I, the LORD, which call thee by thy name, am the God of Israel.

Does this not follow the parable of the 3 servants?

I hope it's not a misapplication of the passage..

A mistake some of us make.

Parable of the lost coin
Luke 19:11-27

The verse in particular
For I say unto you, That unto every one which hath shall be given; and from him that hath not, even that he hath shall be taken away from him.

From the story what it means is that if you are given a gift or riches and you do not sow it (invest it to multiply it) then it shall be taken from you and given to the person who had multiply (enriched) his own.
Literally, if you have something and you cannot use it to make money and remain poor, even that small one you have will be taken from you and given to those who are using their gift to make money.
It is a spiritual principle to use for your prosperity and not something to be afraid of. Look around you, someone is using their talent to get money from you, instead of you to be on the defensive, trying not to make people use you, be on the offensive, try developing what you have to make money out of others. That is the circle that keeps the world round, join it instead of being a spectator

I think this explains it better.
